Anyone else going tonight? I haven't seen MAE since their tour last spring. I'm so stoked.

I saw them last night. A lot of Destination: Beautiful, less new- it was a good set. Unfortunately I don't have the order or anything.

Here's the set from tonight. I'm almost 100% of the order.

The House That Fire Built
Futuro
Suspension
All Deliberate Speed
This Is The Countdown
Brink of Disaster
Embers and Envelopes
Skyline Drive
Just Let Go
Rocket
Soundtrack For Our Movie
Summertime
Someone Else's Arms

Encore: (Only Dave and Zach played, they picked three songs and the crowd voted.)
Tisbury Lane
The Everglow



Hands down the best set I've ever seen MAE play. Their energy was ridiculous and you could tell how happy they were to be back touring. Awesome, awesome show

Mae is awesome on albums, but SO bad live. When I saw them, Dave sang so many octaves lower than what the songs were recorded like, and had to really force any note that was even a tiny bit higher. God, he sucked.

They've been hit or miss for me. Much better at smaller club shows than big shows.

That looks exactly like the setlist from Richmond, with the exception of The Everglow.

saw mae tonite at the crazy donkey in long island, ny. same exact setlist as posted above, in the same order. the two touring members def. brought new energy to the older mae tunes and dave's vocals were spot on. talked to him after the show about habitat for humanity...they need around $65,000 to build a house in VA for the organization and already have 10k in the bank with the new song downloads...awesome band with awesome intentions.

I wish that's what it would've been like when I saw them. Dave was, like I said, horrible. They brought back Mark on bass for the show I saw. The keyboardist was some 90 pound ****** and he couldn't play stuff nearly as well as Rob.
